Original show description below.

“One of the most ambitious and literary songwriters of her generation” (Rolling Stone), Rosanne Cash is America’s foremost musical woman of letters, a singularly literate and incisive artist whose poignant vocals turn every song into a revelatory tale. She returns following her performances with Ry Cooder in tribute to her father, the legendary Johnny Cash, joined by her husband and musical collaborator John Leventhal.

At the peak of her interpretive powers, her career hit a milestone with the 2009 release of The List, an album distilled from a list of 100 essential country songs given to her at 18 by her father, the legendary Johnny Cash. Saturday and Sunday's performances will also include special guests The Milk Carton Kids.

Cash has landed nearly a dozen #1 country hit singles while earning 16 GRAMMY nominations, culminating in three GRAMMY wins for her 2009 Blue Note release, The River & The Thread.
